Issue

The patch fixes inventory inconsistency issues such as:

• PHP Fatal error when running bin/magento inventory:reservation:list-inconsistencies in the CLI because of the wrong SKU parameter type.
• Duplicate data in inconsistencies list.
• New reservation will be created before order placed (previous realization based on reservation after order placed). In case of errors within order placement, additional reservation will be added to compensate.

There is also a patch MDVA-30112 that solves the issue where there is an unexpectedly large number of reservation inconsistencies in the inventory_reservation table. For the solution, refer to MDVA-30112 Magento patch: large number reservation inconsistencies .

Steps to reproduce

PHP Fatal error when running bin/magento inventory:reservation:list-inconsistencies .

To get a list of reservation inconsistencies log in to the production server and run the following command in the CLI (-r - raw output):

bin/magento inventory:reservation:list-inconsistencies -r

Expected Results

<ORDER_INCREMENT_ID>:<SKU>:<QUANTITY>:<STOCK-ID>

. Actual Results PHP Fatal error is outputted.

Duplicate data in the inventory_reservation table .

To troubleshoot reservation inconsistencies, run the following command:

SELECT *, COUNT(*)
FROM inventory_reservation
GROUP BY metadata, sku, quantity
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1

Expected Results No duplicates. Actual Results There are duplicates.

New reservation created before order placed:

1. The merchant imports their database.
